Best Ever Sweet Rolls image

I got this recipe when with a rolling pin set that I got from QVC in '96. They make HUGE rolls. I almost always put fruit in them as well - - cherry pie filling, cooked apples, dried apricots and the like. It makes way too many rolls for my family to enjoy while they are fresh, so once I roll them up and cut them, I only cook 3 of them and the rest go into the freezer. Then, I can take a few out at a time, thaw them & allow them to raise, then pop them into the oven.
